We are developing various nano sensors where we need to collect data using different electronics. The sensors produce data in the form of resonance frequency. Therefore we need high speed electronics to sample and collect the data from the sensors. For that we need to develop electronics which can track the resonance frequency of the sensors. The board will contain different components such as amplifiers, filters and data processing acquisition units and microcontrollers. This project does involve C programming. It is important that the students are located in Edmonton so that we can provide them the hardware more conveniently. Each student will be paid $1400 through the Level Up grant.

The students will:

1. understand our existing electronics

2. Design the schematics

3. Search right parts which are compatible to the desired range of noise level and frequency range

4. Design and develop the schematics and PCB

5. Populate the PCBs and test the functionality

Through regular meetings, we will provide mentorship and guidance. If required, we also provide our existing schematics so that the new design can be easily integrated.
